MoinMoin on lighttpd.net webserver using fcgi

> Hello, are there any successfull installation of moinmoin.wikiwiki.de on lighttpd as fcgi?

Yeah, I've been using moinmoin on lighttpd with fastcgi for a couple of weeks now.

> There is a method for running on apache, but I cannot imagine how to do the same in lighttpd.conf.

I followed the changes to moin.fcg as described in step 3 of "Running as an external application and/or on Windows", started the fcgi version of moinmoin and added the following to lighttpd.conf:

fastcgi.server = ( "/location-to-moinmoin" =>
                       ( "fcg" =>
                         (
                           "host" => "127.0.0.1",
                           "port" => 8888,
                           "check-local" => "disable",
                         )
                       )
 )

This works perfect, with the disadvantage that I see a lot of "2005-12-02 16:30:11: (mod_fastcgi.c.2373) FastCGI-stderr:" errors in lighttpd's error log. This is caused by fcgi/moinmoin, but I haven't found the time to fix that one

Good luck!
